This procurement falls under the services category, with a contract value of £3,300,000. The tender is open with a deadline for submissions on September 16, 2022. The contract period is from October 10, 2022, to March 31, 2025. The service will be community-based in Merseyside, focusing on early intervention and prevention for children and young people, with an emphasis on cultural competence and reducing vulnerabilities to violence. This tender opportunity presents a chance for SMEs and VCSEs to participate in providing evidence-based therapeutic interventions to support the wellbeing of children and young people in Merseyside. Businesses with experience in community-focused services, early intervention programs, mental health support, and trauma recovery are well-suited to compete for this contract. The emphasis on whole family approaches and partnership/collaborative applications creates opportunities for organisations that champion holistic care and resilience-building initiatives to make a positive impact on vulnerable populations in the region. ## Notice MVRP is commissioning for Service(s) over 18-months (optional contract extension of further 12 months) to provide evidence-based therapeutic interventions using a whole family approach. 'Whole family' therapeutic approaches means that family members are clinically triaged for their individual needs, but interventions are co-ordinated/concurrently delivered. This Service specification for tender has been designed to respond to the needs of children, young people and families from across Merseyside, as identified by them. There is clear need for earlier mental health and wellbeing support for families right across Merseyside and so this tender is open to applications from all boroughs equally. We advise bidders to seek funding only for what they require/can deliver in the timeframe, as there may be scope in this budget to deliver more than one Service in different areas of Merseyside. However, MVRP will only fund one Service per borough and so encourages partnership/collaborative applications. The Service(s) should take a primary or secondary / early intervention and prevention approach, receiving referrals from a combination of community/non-statutory and statutory services. This is not a crisis intervention service(s). The Service(s) will be community-based in Merseyside and will need to evidence cultural intelligence/competence to best meet the needs of the community, addressing inequality of access to mental health and wellbeing support. It aims to support recovery from trauma/adversity and build resilience to reduce vulnerabilities of children and young people from experiencing violence. MVRP are looking for Provider(s) who are equipped to mobilise quickly to explore this early intervention, whole family approach to improving sustainable wellbeing. The Service(s) will work closely with an evaluation partner (tendered separately) to determine what works to reduce the vulnerability of children and young people from experiencing violence across their lifespan. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/200ef13e-1748-4790-8a0a-1e9fb5411b13 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 17 Aug 2022 | | Submission deadline | 16 Sep 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 9 Oct 2022 - 31 Mar 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £3,300,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MERSEYSIDE POLICE - PROCUREMENT DEPARTMENT | | Locality | LIVERPOOL | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L3 3AN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD72 Liverpool | | Local authority | Liverpool | | Electoral ward | Everton West | | Westminster constituency | Liverpool Riverside | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85322000 - Community action programme ## Release History - 17 Aug 2022 at 13:04 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/200ef13e-1748-4790-8a0a-1e9fb5411b13 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/200ef13e-1748-4790-8a0a-1e9fb5411b13 17th August 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=51808&B=BLUELIGHT Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/32215 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://www.merseyside.police.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
